Ryan started to feel better as the day went on on Sunday, we decided against coming home and had a quiet morning but he even felt like a bit of scooting by the river in the afternoon. Yesterday Ryan was pleased to see his Nanny and Grandad and also pleased to see a little boy who was staying at the house for a few days so he can be with his mum and dad on his 6th birthday, which is today. His sister is having a bone marrow transplant and a couple weeks ago he was admitted to hospital to donate his bone marrow to her - what an amazing gift, and a brave boy.

Today Ryan starts GCSF which should encourage his bone marrow to start to recover. This is normally given as an injection and as Ryan got used to having injections in Germany we are hoping that he will tolerate these injections without too much upset, although his reaction to this news was understandably not great. In the past we have requested that this is given IV which means a 2 hour visit to hospital but the injection is something that we could give him at Sam's house and gives him more time out of hospital which we feel is the better option.
